Refund Disbursement

How Refunds are Paid

Refunds are processed in the same manner in which you originally paid.

If you paid your balance with a credit card and are now due a refund, the funds will be returned to your credit card. Credit card refunds are processed weekly.

UMUC also offers direct deposit for tuition and Financial Aid refunds, so you can sign up to have your refunds deposited directly into your checking or savings account.

If you do not sign up for direct deposit in MyUMUC, a refund check will be mailed to your address on file with UMUC. Make sure that your address is correct by logging into MyUMUC and updating your personal information. This will ensure timely delivery of your refund. Refund checks are made payable to the student and are mailed from the State Comptroller's office.

Financial Aid refunds are processed automatically once your aid has been authorized for disbursement by Financial Aid. If your aid is not reflected on your student account in a disbursed status, you should contact the Financial Aid Office to check the status.

Refunds via Direct Deposit

To set up direct deposit, you need an active U.S. bank account, your routing number and your account number.
